My pink coat is my 'go to' for a dash of colour, it adds a splash of much needed brightness to all my outfits and can be worn with a huge array of colours, in the winter with black, navy and berry, in the Summer I wear it with denim/chambray shirts and pale denim jeans...For extra warmth in the colder months wear with a biker jacket underneath and an oversize scarf...Asos have a fab range of oversize scarves you can wear with now with block bright coats..

Great post. A good reminder of the power of a pop of colour. I love your trainers but obviously as i've now decided i want them/ won't look too old wearing them they seemed to have sold out everywhere! x
ReplyDeleteOh the green coat is amazing. I am SO boring with my coat choices. This is one area I need to improve on - massively
ReplyDeleteI have been eyeing up a red duster style coat for a while....maybe now is the time to take the plunge to get me in the mood for Spring. I've always admired your pink coat, looks amazing on you xx
ReplyDeleteI eye up that green coat every time I'm in M&S. Very similar to the Zara one that Kat had last year. But I think I'd look just a bit to twee & patriotic in that particular shade of green ,,, usually just reserved for Paddy's Day over here!!
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE the mustard coat from Zara, gorgeous! :) x
ReplyDeleteThat pink biker jacket...swoon. You just be ready for another colour Fran????
ReplyDeleteI love that pin with the lady in the green coat and the white shoes - it's so crisp - I love it. I think spring is coming soon ... I might break out some colour soon.
ReplyDeleteYou wear your pink and blue coats do well, Frances. I saw a woman in an orange one today and she looked fabulous. Lynne xx
ReplyDeleteI'm dull when it comes to colour & I really need to play more! I've just ordered a burgundy duster style coat & that's as good as it gets! x
